What's Cookin'? For me, it would have to be something chocolate. Maybe chocolate chip cookies or chocolate brownies! Pixie Little decided to sample the chocolate before baking! This adorable digi is
"Chocolate Pixie". She's part of the Pixie's Favorites Collection. She's available now in the Pixie Dust Studio.

This week's challenge has a Cooking Theme. What will you "bake" for this week's challenge?

You could win a Pixie Dust image of your choice and a Pixie Star Award for your blog!

Do you like movies! I do, and Pixie Little does too! This month's Pixie Flick is a teen classic.

Here is my clue:One of the characters plays the part of a bouncer at a club called "CATS" (I
couldn't resist this one! )

This week's challenge is to use the color PINK onyour card or project.

Here is another clue: My card! The movie has something to do with a "dance". Teens usually rent a fancy car to be driven to this type of dance in style.

Girls need a fancy dress and fancy accessories for the dance, so I made some!

Here is a close up of the purse, I used the template "Slice" from My Time Made Easy". I modified the template by adding a flap to the purse and attaching a ribbon handle. I cut the girl out from the same digi I used on the card and made a matching tag.

Fancy shoes are a must! This template is my own design. I added some scented bath salt balls tied up in tuhl.

Gotta have some sparkle, so I used some glittery CS. I again cut the girl out and placed her on a round tag this time. The shoe is lined with the same DP I used on the purse. The tags have some of that DP too so they all coordinate.

Do you know the name of the movie now? Other team members have clues on their blogs too. When you know the answer, head on over to the Challenge Blog to see if you guessed correctly.I also have something else to share that is "pink and pretty!"

My newest grandaughter, Alyssa! Maybe I should enter her in this week's challenge...What do you think?

Use the color PINK on your card or project for this week's challenge.

You could win a Pixie Dust image of your choice and a Pixie Star Award for your blog!

I am so tired of the heat of Summer! This has been one of the hottest summers on record. Evidently, "Gentry" is tired of summer too. She's already modeling her newest Winter outfit! You can find her along with her new friends in the Pixie Dust Studio. Stop by and pay them a visit! Just look for "i am Gentry".

Today we have a simple, easy sketch! I couldn't wait to use some of Lauren's newest digital paper.
I chose "Buttons 'n Bits Flowers" and "Grammy's Lace". The sentiment is from the new "Tooty Fruity" Sentiments collection. All of these are now available in the My Time Made Easy Shop.

Sketch challenges are every other week this summer, instead of every week, so you have more time to enter.
